I have a standard set of test files I use that highlight various issues with interpolation. Rife 4.6 is smooth with fewer artefacts that SVP. But the few artefacts it had were much worse than any seen in non Rife modes. Those nasty artefacts are either gone or very much lessened with 4.7. Rife 4.8 optimization is much faster but nothing else has changed. Except I do get a few more microstutters which is the opposite to what you see. But then my setup is hypersensitive to stutters so I probably see a few more than you or other people.

Thanks to @Minimunch57 for posting the latest Rife 4.8 update. At one point I saw a massive GPU usage improvement, but that was temporary. With Rife 4.7 there is a clear visual improvement over 4.6. The only difference I see in 4.8 is that the optimization completes in less than a minute as opposed to the 3-5 minutes on previous versions.

First I recommend rolling back SVP if you can. If you can't then I would recommend removing SVP completely, rebooting your machine. then re-downloading and installing it again.

But if you really want to do this then try downloading VSTRT-Windows-x64.v14.test.7z from https://github.com/AmusementClub/vs-mlr … g/v14.test then replace the files under the Rife folder. If that doesn't work then then you might need to download the full vsmlrt-windows-x64-cuda.v14.test.7z file. This is the file I downloaded and used it to replace the executables and libraries in the Rife folder. If it is still not clear what you need to do from my instructions then as before I recommend you rollback SVP , re-install or wait for an update.

It depends on what you want. If you want the smoothest motion available with fewest artefacts  then Rife is the best. The main downsides to Rife are that the few remaining artefacts can quite often be worse than Automatic. Also you will need at least a medium to high end 30 series Nvidia GPU.

Unless you change the settings to point somewhere else then you have to replace mpv.com and mpv.exe in the mp64 folder. The v3 version works just fine.  But it's going to be a similar version to what was downloaded with SVP. It's strange that some of you are having issues because there have not been any reported stability issues with 0.36. I updated my version of SVP and had no issues. So my recommendation would be to completely uninstall SVP, reboot then try again.

I've always had micro stutters because I'm watching in VR over wifi which increases latency. As for artefacts, maybe we are watching different content because at least 1 major artefact is gone and I see improvement with the minor ones too. The best example is in Gravity at around 16 minutes when the astronaut is floating in space. With 4.6 the whole background is shimmering. With 4.7 the shimmering is gone.

I get occasional but predictable micro stutters. The kind I probably wouldn't notice on a smaller screen like a TV. Yesterday, the mpv source was updated with a few nano-second timing updates (including vsync) that I thought might make a difference. With the new build the micro stutters are now nano stutters. The difference is subtle and may be placebo but it seems to be repeatable.

I see improvements with fast moving objects and also chequered objects. So less artefacts than 4.6. However the few remaining artefacts are worse than Automatic which is the same as 4.6.

Did some more testing. Rife is obviously smooth with 4.7 in particular removing or reducing some of the more egregious artefacts. But when it does have artefacts they still tend to look worse than when on Automatic. One particular vertical fast motion scene sees the character drop down to the ground. With Rife, the character seems to disappear every other frame so the character is flashing. I compared this with automatic and this doesn't happen. I use Rife by default but I do wonder if Automatic should be my default instead.

I run SVP with 1920x2160 files. With 4.7 GPU utilisation averages about 75%. With 4.6 the average was around 53%. That's a pretty big jump which as I said I'm fine with. But I do wonder if there is any optimisation that is still to be done or is the new model simply more dense with information so it is what it is?

Thank you very much for this

After some testing it looks like the artefacts have been reduced in this model. The star field in Gravity no longer shimmers.  The intro to Blade Runner 2023 where they fly over tiles used to shimmer a lot, but now it only shimmers a little when the ship flies over. Need to do more testing but this is an obvious improvement over 4.6.

What do you think needs to be updated? What features would you like to see?
